Ah…I am SO glad that I was introduced to FB Purity from your earlier article, and am loving it. I guess that’s the reason these trending topics aren’t showing on my timeline so far, and even if they do, I’d be doing just what you mentioned.

I’m glad you’re enjoying FBPurity, Harleena! Yeah, I’m not sure whether the feature came in auto-enabled or not so it very well may be why you haven’t seen them yet. Although I know that they were initially only released to 4 countries so it may be that the roll out has not completed yet either. Have a great week! Kim
